Tuesday 5/21 we had Jim Bukanis' charter that we moved to the afternoon. Left the dock around 12. Took a few to get bait but we did. That's right about when the wind kicked up and it got ugly. Had plenty of bites in the snot. But the 2 guys in their 80s were hanging on the railing for dear life. Couple of chummers too..... The guys fished like hell despite the conditions and picked 4 nice fish all around 30lbs.
No one wanted to pose and be famous in the pic except Jim.
Wednesday 5/22 turned out to be beautiful. Had Hans, Bob, Kris, Jason, Tony and Fred out for Stripers. Took a bit to get bait and then starting looking. Fished some bait and instantly had one. Then a couple blues. Got calls from Capts Fred and Chris that they were picking a couple. Took a ride and got one quick then it was dead. Made a move and put another 5 in, in no time and again it was over. Ran back south and the most fish I've read this season 30ft thick stacked even swimming around the boat. 100s of bass all over. Only one bite and lost it. Read em 3 more times and lost a couple bites. Had blow ups all day. Fish fighting over the baits. Fun day on the water and popped some Striper cherries. Always a great time. Some how we only ended up with 7 fish and lost a billion. Called it a day at 430.
Thanks Guys!
